I still have to do a scenario for the Rite Aid Cleaning UPR but wanted to give you a few updates on the deals at Rite Aid.
Keep an eye out for Rite Aid peelies on the Gain Laundry Detergent.
Gain Laundry Detergent $4.99
use $1.00/1 in 4/17 inserts
use $3.00/1 Rite Aid Peelies
$.99 after coupons
A few of you emailed to let me know that the Nivea limit was more than 1. I bought mine and then bought some for my Mom with my card. I did get two $5.00 UPR in two separate transactions. Lynsee bought $30 worth and got two $5 in one transaction.
Note: The published limit is 1. I am not sure if this is a glitch or if Rite Aid changed the limit. Rite Aid is known to change the limits – however, proceed at your own risk.
I hope to get a scenario up later for the household supplies! Do you have any updates to share?
Elisabeth says
How much are the Nivea products – the main ones ya’ll are purchasing for your deals?
I’m going tomorrow and will see if there are any left to get the deal on.
Thanks!!
Danielle says
I went today to 2 different RA’s because the one I normally go to was out of the women’s Nivea body wash. I got 4 of the men’s @ the first store, used 4-$3.00/1 q’s, plus a $3.00 off $15.00 RA Q and paid $1.02 oop and got the $5.00 UPR. Then, when I went to the other store They had a bunch of the women’s Nivea -so I did the same thing and the $5.00 UPR printed for that purchase too!!! I also did another transaction getting two of the Dixie plates @ B1G1, 2 of the Lysol wipes and 1-act Allegra. I paid $2.28 oop after Q’s. Good trip I do say!! :)
Maya says
Can you mix and match $15 of Nivea body wahses and Lotions to get the $5 up, or they have to be $15 worth of only body washes?
Rhonda says
My store was out of Newspapers by the time I got there! I seen 2 couponers shopping. ( I have never seen another couponer)
I got 4 Purex Crystals, 2 Dixie Plates, 2 Reeses Eggs, 2 Cadbury Eggs and 22 Snickers Eggs. I paid .96 OOP plus tax.
The cashier that waited on me is just a kid and she hates me and my coupons however, the other cashier was watching me as much as she could. She had a customer and after waiting on them she came back over to see what I got it down too. She was like, “Wow that’s really Good! Do you watch that coupon show on TLC?” My heart dropped a bit when she asked that. Now I’m going to feel ashamed to use coupons because of the cheating couponer on that show. Yeah 22 Snickers Eggs sounds like a lot however, I got them for my daughter to take to school and hand out. I don’t think the cashier was trying to offend me but I was offended when asked about that show. I’ve been grouped in with Extreme Horders! I only had one cart and only used the top pull out seat to carry my haul.
Julie says
Rhonda,
Don’t take it personally! The cashiers at my RA store are awesome and we talk about Extreme Couponing all the time. They are just in awe of the people on the show, wondering how they do that? People just want to say something they think relates to you;)
Shannon says
Totally agree Julie. We shouldn’t be ashamed of saving our family’s hard earned dollars!
Jenna says
My store had an apricot scented Nivea body wash that was on clearance for 50% off making it $2.99. This also worked in the $15 nivea deal.
I was able to get 4 @ $2.99 and 1 for $3.99 paying $.99 and getting back $5 so keep an eye out!
Christine S. says
Our Nivea Body wash coupons were only good for the mens body wash :( so I had to get all 4 MENS *YUCK* lol The Store Manager told me as soon as I walked in to pay close attention to the UPR Limits that most were only 1. Then the cashier tried telling me that I would only be able to use 1 Nivea coupon even though I was buying 4 bottles!?
I ended up doing
4 bottles of Nivea @ 0.99 for a total of $3.96, after the coupons
used a $3.00 of $15 purchase (Reciept Survery Coupon)
and got the $5.00 up reward when you spend $20.00
So I made like $4.00 :)
Chad says
ALl my coupons were for the womens Nivea body wash. So i got six bolttles of the womens. I can always give it away as gifts.
Shannon says
Chad,
he he .. seems as though they got papers mixed up this week — you need mens.. we need womens.
Natalie says
Hi! Go to Target! The Nivea Body Wash for Men or Women is $3.04 and with the $3.00 coupon they come out to 4 cents!!! You can do 5 at a time but you can go back in line and finish your purchase. I just got over 30 for like 2 dollars! Also, at CVS there is the Degree deodorant trial size 2/$2 and there are $1.00 off coupons so you get them for free because the coupon does not exclude trial size. Walgreens have them for $.99 too and you can still use your $1 off coupon and get them for free. I just got 40 for FREE!!
Lynzee h says
wait who stole my name??? lol. Ive never met someone with their name spelled the same as mine.
Wish i could have gotten the nivea, we didnt get the coupons in our paper.
Shannon says
Ha ha I thought it was you, but noticed the difference in the email address :)
Shannon says
Ha ha Lynzee I just realized the Womans name is Lynsee LOL
Samantha says
You can use a peelie AND a manufacturer’s coupon?
I went to Rite Aid for the John Frieda last week and several of them had peelies on them but the woman said I could only use either my coupons or the ones on the bottle.
Shannon says
That is correct – one manufacturer coupon per item. If the peelie is a rite aid coupon then you can use it. The JF ones were manufacturer.
Lydia says
Hi! I have a question, the coupon is from most sunday papers? Which exact insert is it in? I found 3 Gain coupons and they were only .25 off instead of a dollar. =/
Shannon says
Lydia,
Unfortunately some areas get lower amounts :(
Tara says
I did the cleaning deal – I bought 4 Air Wick Sprays, 1 Lysol Spray, 2 Ziplock Sliders, 2 Purex Crystals, 2 Dixie Plates and 4 Renuzits – used the coupons in the database and the video values – paid 9.36 oop and got the $10 UPR – Yeah!
stacey says
how are you to get the uprewards if you only can purchase one at a time. After using the $3 coupon they would be .99 cents, am i correct on this. Im a new couponee LOL.
Samantha says
They should not limit the amount that you can purchase. That’s ridiculous. You should be able to buy as many as you want.
You will only get one +UP Rewards deal for each transaction though. So if the deal is you get 5+UP when you buy $15, if you buy $30 in those products, you will still only get the 5+UP.
Also, the total that goes towards the +UP Rewards is before coupons. So if the item is on sale for $3.99 and you have a $3.00 off coupon, you still get credit for $3.99 toward the $15 you need to spend to get the 5+UP.
Kathy says
Hi Stacey, the UPR is based on the price before coupons so the whole $3.99 counts even though you are paying .99
stacey says
Well made my trip to riteaid today and got my bodywash (if you get it at walmart its only costing you the tax(i got 4), cvs its .88 cents). I got the Mens body wash at rite aid because they dont have it at walmart. I also got the gain dishsoap for .39 cents. Im lovn this copon stuff LOL I saved mself $12.50.
Sandy says
RA 80 ct. dryer sheets still ringing up at .99 each however no UPR printing.
Sandra says
I did the Nivea lotion spend $15 and get $5 and I did the Nivea body wash and got the $5upr too for that. Then on the bottom of my recipt it said if I spend aother $7 in Nivea products I’ll get another $5upr. I was going to try it but then I saw the limit of one. Maybe I’ll try it. Thanks for all you do for us
Kelli says
It looks like RA is tracking the total at the bottom of your reciept. But when you reach it, it starts tracking the amout again. However, you shouldn’t recieve another UPR if you reach it again.
I talked to a manager that rang up a lady who tried to get a second one and it didn’t work.
RA needs to do like CVS and just have the reciept say “limit reached” after you get it….
Shannon says
Kelli, it is definitely printing more than 1.
ANDREA MOYER says
Which Rite Aid did you go to?
Kara says
Is the Gain 3.99 or 4.99??
Katie says
I watched the rite aid videos to get a $2/10 cleaning product purchase that I combined with the individual cleaning products that also had video value coupons, I also made sure the ones I chose were ones I used as well as ones I had manufacturer coupons for! Ill try to share my deal idea not sure how/if it would work for others as my cashier was pretty lenient with coupon usage!
I did three separate transactions to get the most value…
Transaction one: was the Nivea Deal so I could use the $5 up reward on another transaction I was completing today!
Transaction two:
1- scott 12 pack bath tissue on sale for 7.99
$1 rite aid video coupon
$1 printable manufacturer coupon
2- Lysol Wipes on sale 2/$5
$1 off two printable manufacturer coupon
$1 off video value coupon
Used $5 reward from Nivea deal
Used $2/10 cleaning video values coupon for a total oop of $1.99
Transaction Three:
1- scott 12 pack bath tissue on sale for 7.99
$1 rite aid video coupon
$1 printable manufacturer coupon
2- Lysol Wipes on sale 2/$5
$1 off two printable manufacturer coupon
$1 off video value coupon
2-ziploc bag boxes on sale 2/$5
$1 off 2 viideo values coupon
1- .50cents off manufactuers printable coupon
used $2/10 cleaning video values coupon total oop $10.49
total oop for cleaning was $12.48 and I got $10 UP rewards for next trip so really only like spending $2.48!! :-)
miranda says
how did you use more than one of the $2/10 cleaning VV’s? I was trying to find a way to cut the OOP cost, and love reading about other people’s trips, i hope to go tomorrow
Shannon says
You technically shouldn’t be able to use 2 Miranda. One per account.
Marie says
I have two VV accounts for our household….One for me and one for my husband. I am able to watch the videos under both accounts and print them, then use the coupons in separate transactions with only 1 Wellness card. Their system allows it, so I do it. Have never had a problem.
Christine says
Hopefully this was done unknowingly/ by accident! However, this is why I feel someday soon all the coupons are going to go away! :( It seems there are so many people who are abusing the system to make a buck, it’s sad! I know times are hard but if we abuse the system we may force the companies to stop giving us such good deals! I see so much stuff listed on Craigslist after there is a freebie deal it’s ridiculous, if you can’t use it (or donate it to people who can) leave some for the rest of us who really need it! Most coupons (in my area) state something to the affect you can’t resale the stuff anyway!! Lets show some dignity for ourselves and other people and do the right thing! :)
Diana says
Oh geez! Get a grip Christiine :)
tiffany says
I completely argee, soon the companies are going to realize people are making more money from coupons than they are! And ever since that stupid show came out people have started being crazy with it! when i go to the flea market all i see is people selling items they got for free, instead of leaving items for others thats what they do =(…
katie says
First off to answer miranda both my boyfriend and I have accounts and he watches the videos also so that if there is a coupon we really need two of we have it. I specifically asked the cashier if it was ok. She was fine with it. Second of all to Christine you really do need to get a grip. Got all my coupons legally stacked appropriately and only bought what i needed for our house. Im pretty sure 2 twelve packs of toilet paper four lysol wipes four body wash and two ziploc bags is in no way excessive and trust me there was PLENTY more for others! I was simply sharing so others could see one way to do this deal. The reason I chose these products was because we use them anyways! And I would never ever resell products I purchased. However I did bless my parents with free toilet paper since they had us over for sunday dinner.
Elisabeth says
I think Christine makes a great point (though your situation sounds appropriate Katie). We all see on TLC Extreme Couponing as a very valid example of this and it may very well be why companies scale way back and we lose the savings that help us manage our households and be SAHM’s for our dear children.
I’m glad people point out the logistics and morality of couponing if for nothing else, than for the newbies to get off on a good foot from the beginning. I recently read of a woman who has 5 computers at her home and she prints off the good deals all at once (milk, cheese, & other) as soon as they hit the press….that’s that many less coupons the rest of us get to access b/c the manufacturers only make so many available. The manufacturers limit accounts for a reason- it’s an honor system.
We should be courteous of others while trying to make the most of what we have obtained appropriately, otherwise we will collectively end up losing out.
jessica g says
I went to ra and the lady at the register was adamant I could only get 1 nivea bottle. So I’m gonna go to a different store tomorrow :( at least the rcpt tracks
